The story

Fiducia Data Services is a Nigerian fintech operating a digital supply chain financing marketplace. The platform connects corporate buyers and their suppliers with a pool of financiers (banks and other financial institutions) who bid to discount invoices, enabling suppliers to access working capital at competitive rates. Fiducia itself is explicitly not a bank — it operates as a marketplace/orchestration layer on top of third-party financier balance sheets.
